Fortunately, Shreveport was spared this time around, but south of us, of course, is still dealing with a good amount of flooding and power losses for many, many people. Your kindness and support mean so much.

There's still many of his I need to see, but be sure to check out Abraham's Valley--probably the only one of his films that I've seen that I've liked even more than Angelica.<br /><br />Huge fan of the De Toth and Niblo too.<br /><br />Btw, I don't know your email address, but I'd love to talk about The Last Lullaby with you when you have a chance.

Your latest quartet is a great lot, with the Oliveira and de Toth in the top rank category. THE STRANGE CASE OF ANGELICA, which defty combines whimsy, mystery, humor and tragedy in a mix that's exclusive to one of the cinema's most incredible success stories. I love when you assert that Oliveira's visual style is as weighty as Dreyer's. De Toth's film is indeed one of the great art house westerns, and as you note it's uncompromising. Scorsese's Dylan film is the rank of Pennebaker's and Niblo's film does define Garbo.<br /><br />Splendid analysis here in a triumphant wrap!Sam Julianonoreply@blogger.com
